JBSA Open Rec Activities!
Right now, because of Covid-19, they are open from 3:15-6pm and require that parents call ahead to reserve a space, as we are limiting the number that can come in. Open Recreation is for ages 9-12. Membership is free.
If you are already a member, you just need to update the paperwork and bring us a current copy of shot records. If you are new, you just need to bring in a current shot record and have a parent register the child before he/she can start.
